Who tops out at 4K, and who climbs past it
29 of the 31 list 4K as the best they will do. The other 2 treat it as a setting rather than a limit and will go on to 8K. On 2 of them the price matrix carries a line item keyed exactly to 4K, so the step up from the tier directly below it is a real, published credit figure rather than an estimate.

What the step up to 4K costs
Only where the model's own price matrix carries a line item keyed exactly to 4K and another one below it. No resolution is mapped onto an option key it does not literally match — “is 2K the SD/HD line or the 4K line?” is a question the catalog does not answer, so it is not answered here.

| ByteDance Upscaler Video | HD · 1 cr | 3 cr | +2 |

Cheapest complete job first. Every row links to that model's spec page — tier and mode variants share a page with the model they are a variant of, so this is products rather than SKUs.

How these models are billed
Nine different billing shapes across the roster, which is why a straight comparison of headline figures between two of these models can mislead.
- Charged a flat rate per generation16 models
- Charged by whether audio is generated3 models
- Charged per megapixel of output3 models
- Charged per second of output2 models
- Charged per second, at a rate that changes with output resolution2 models
- Charged quality resolution flat2 models
- Charged a base charge plus a per-second rate1 model
- Charged a flat rate that changes with output resolution1 model
- Charged per image1 model
All figures are Versely credits. A credit figure marked as a headline rate is not the cost of a complete job. Your plan's credit allowance is on the pricing page.

Frequently asked questions
Which AI models output 4K?+
31 Versely models list 4K among their supported quality settings — 7 video, 23 image and 1 lipsync & avatars, from 16 providers. This is the setting list, not the single top resolution: a model can appear here and still be capable of more.
Is 4K the highest these models go?+
On 29 of the 31, yes. The other 2 go higher, all of them to 8K.
Does 4K cost more than the tier below it?+
On the 2 models whose price matrix has a line item keyed exactly to 4K, yes. The largest jump is Seedance 2.0: 25 credits at HD against 219 credits at 4K. On every other model here the resolution you pick does not appear as its own priced line, so it does not change the bill on its own.
What does a 4K job cost in credits?+
Complete jobs across these 31 models run from 1 to 168 credits. Resolution is one input to that figure, not the whole of it.
